I am German and have been living in Andalucía/Spain for 30 years, have two wonderful children, both were born in Andalucía.
I have dedicated my professional life-time to Fair Trade and Solidarity Economy. I live in the very heart of Córdoba´s historic center, and am happy to share my home with guests (opening my door to travellors from around the globe) and cultural activities. I am a social activist, with different engagements and dreams, and am happy to tell you more about them when we meet! I would love to welcome you here!

We welcome persons from a huge diversity of social and cultural activities. Welcome to the world!
